From horse racing, to Tim Burton. From antiques to a night at the museum. Lisa Buros-Hutchins brings you a May Events Calendar that will keep you busy.

For this week only, a private and spectacular sensorial experience is to be had at the heart of one of Paris’ oldest historical treasures. Under the cover of night, a small crowd is ushered into the peaceful heart of the Cour d’Honneur, sheltered from the vast emptiness of the Esplanade des Invalides beyond, to witness a remarkable transformation of this ancient building. Darkness falls, muffled conversations curl away on the air; the walls ignite. In an explosion of lights and music, La Nuit aux Invalides is born.

April is here! Lisa Buros-Hutchins keeps you in-the-know about the top events, what to see, and where to be seen. There's no shortage of gallery openings, art shows, exhibits, photography, concerts - even a bike race. There's something for everyone.

Two decisive periods of time for fashion and two men who exceeded the demands at hand. Louis Vuitton-Marc Jacobs at Les Arts Decoratifs until September 16, proves that even after Fashion Week has ended in Paris, the craftsmanship and talent continue to thrive within the city. A retrospective of the two men's work showcases not only how Vuitton came to start the world-renowned brand, but how he became a leader during the industrial revolution through numerous innovations. A creativity, that Marc Jacobs continues to expand upon today as the artistic director of the house during modern globalization.

March is a busy month! Lisa Buros-Hutchins keeps you in-the-know about the top events, what to see, and where to be seen. From gallery openings, art shows, poetry celebrations, and concerts, to the infamous Paris Fashion Week. There's something for everyone.

What could possibly top celebrating Valentine's Day in the most romantic city in the world? Special offers and celebrations at clubs, hotels and restaurants before and after February 14. Catch world class women's tennis, gorgeous cars at Retro Mobile, major museum openings, concerts, etc. Lisa Buros-Hutchins gathered our Paris Events Calendar for February.

Gong Hey Fat Choy! Paris celebrates the Chinese New Year with parades and festivals held this Saturday and Sunday on both sides of the Seine. The parades, performers and street fairs are dazzling, as Carina Okula shows via her vibrant photography. We add schedules, links and video by the City of Paris. P.S. Don't forget your camera!

When there's festival in Paris, count on photographer Francis Beddok to be there. Today he takes us for a ride on another big Paris Ferris wheel and other amusement park rides at the Grand Palais. We also include a slick little video courtesy of the Paris Mayor's Office. Add this to your December 2012 calendar if you miss the Jours de fête this year.

The January Soldes and fashion, yes! But also: the Chinese New Year Parade, circus acts, the Paris Dog Show, and new museum shows. Note The Steins close soon as the Rodin permanent collection closes through March. Concerts, ballet, opera and a Jazz Crusader. Authors, too. Thanks to Lisa Buros-Hutchins for compiling a full January Paris Events Calendar.
